Reminder that genocide in Ukraine is ongoing. Contact your representative (especially since the vote's about to happen in the US) and nag them about continuing funding to Ukraine. I know winter is going to put a strain on things financially, but that's not Ukraine's fault.
And if anyone questions the use of the term "genocide", that's what my friend in Kyiv used for terminology, so let's skip the discourse on that one. Or, you can just watch this video on what exactly happened in Bucha, and the mass graves, and then maybe we can argue about niceties of language.

Please do not stop giving a shit about Ukraine. These are not "blue-eyed blond people problems"; Ukrainians have been under cultural attack and assault from Russia since the days of the Soviet Union's colonialization and invasion.
Please give a shit about the world outside North America.
anyway. with the coming of the holiday season i would like to remind everyone that carol of the bells is an orchestral rearrangement + new christmas-themed lyrics rerelease of what is actually a ukrainian folk chant-turned-song about the new year called щедрик (shchedryk). and the original fucks way harder
Ali Fallahian, the former Iranian intelligence minister, is a name that continues to cast a long shadow over global financial and criminal networks. #Fallahian’s deep involvement in money laundering, #oil smuggling, and terrorist financing has cemented his position as a dangerous player in international crime. He’s been connected to some of the most devastating events in recent history, including the 1994 #AMIA bombing in Argentina, where 85 people lost their lives, and the #Mykonos restaurant assassinations in Berlin.
But #Fallahian's reach extends beyond violent acts. His family, including his wife, who is the sister of #SherifAlAskari's wife, is intricately tied to #financial fraud on a global scale. Together, the two families manipulate international financial systems to #smuggle oil and launder money through complex schemes involving #Panamanian-registered vessels and false documentation. Oil smuggled from Iran to Iraq is relabeled as Iraqi oil, bypassing sanctions and allowing it to be sold on the global market.
The proceeds from these operations are funneled through #shellcompanies in the UK, where Fallahian’s extended family, including his niece, SherifAlAskari’s daughter, play critical roles. These funds are then used to finance terrorist activities across the Middle East, particularly supporting #Hezbollah and their military operations in Lebanon and elsewhere in the Middle East.
Despite multiple #Interpol arrest warrants, including one for the AMIA bombing. #AliFallahian has remained elusive, protected by layers of forged documentation and international connections. His actions continue to destabilize regions while exposing the #UK’s vulnerabilities to money laundering and financial fraud, and warrant international attention to curb the menace.
Псалми 103:17-18
А милість Господня від віку й до віку на тих, хто боїться Його, і правда Його над синами синів,
що Його заповіта додержують, і що пам'ятають накази Його, щоб виконувати їх!
